We all need a good wrench to keep around the house, but we don't necessarily need a whole toolbox full of them. In this case, the Craftsman Figure Eight Wrench might be the magic solution.

Why? Because the $25 piece of metal is eight different sizes in one, starting at 1/4 all the way up to 3/4 inch. Plus both ends are compatible with a bunch of different styles of fasteners. So on a day when you're doing some work around the house, whether you're fixing the sink or doing maintenance on your bike, you won't be wasting time rummaging around for wrench after wrench. [Sears]
